Belarus Freedom
Despite the fact that i’m living in Serbia right now Belarus is my home country and Minsk is my home town.
I have been in Belarus during this presidents elections. I’ve voted for Svitlana Tsikhanouskaya together with all of my family members and friends.
Three days after elections were the most horrible days in my life. Part of the period i spent with my parents out of the city without internet. Many of my friends and just people i know were on protests, i saw their videos, i know many awful stories from them. With my own eyes I saw how militaries beat peaceful people. I saw how they threw flash grenades to them. During three days of terror many men, women, even teenagers disappeared. They were tortured on prisons, they were maimed, some of them were killed by police and militaries and some of them are still nowhere to be found.
It hard to understand how it is became possible in my native town, on the streets where i have been playing football, on the yards where i have been meeting with my friends after school.
But what i know now is that i am PROUD to be a Belarusian. My heart is still in Minsk and i believe that better future is coming. Many Belarusians are making it happen by their own hands right now.
Жыве Беларусь!
